Specimen notes
Supplementary remarks:
One of only two observations of Lepidothamnus laxifolius during Denniston Plateau surveys 2008-2015. No intergradation apparent with small Lepidothamnus shrubs common on Denniston Plateau and previously known as L. intermedius x laxifolius hybrid (e.g. Ngakawau PNAP 1998 report). Whether the latter are actually hybrids with L. intermedius (as described by Quinn & Rattenbury NZ Journal of Botany 10 p. 427), or are L. intermedius remains uncertain.
